The same happened as in last X’mas, I have to stay at Hangzhou alone for the system launching coming soon. It seems that more and more Chinese people have been treating Christmas as their own traditional holiday. X’mas concept business are all over Hangzhu downtown. Each night club conducts X’mas party. Shopping mall offers special X’mas discount. Goverment is so such as lighten up whole downtown at Holy Christmas Night by so much lamplight in the season which is heavily lack of eletricity. I guess that occidental visitor would be happy with it, because here is like their howntown instead of China, a foreign country.
I didn’t want to stay in hotel all day, so I drove around the big west lake 3 times, and then walked on Su Di(bank) to capture great night view. Finallly I was willing to have a cup of coffee in starbucks.
Oops, it is awesome so many people in the store. The interesting thing about coffee is, you can buy coffee in most of tea store but in coffee store it is hard to have tea in coffee shop. Is it so-called culture aggression? Anyway I got my grand mocca by 20 mins waiting. It started rain while I was stepping out of store. I drove back hotel with favorite music of Andrea Bocelli. It was my X’mas.
It is such coincident. After submiting I found this post is No.100 entry of my blog. Amazing, it means I get to run backup of blog.

This is my first time of writing, but I have been reading your blog ever since you introduced it on the BBS of Spanish Garden about half a year ago. Although you did not write articles diligently as Jianshuo does, I became used to taking a look at your blog almost everyday to find those fabulous photos. Look forward to seeing more of your works in the new year.
